Every kid in America,
Liked Christmas a LOT,
The warehouse team,
Who had to manage peak every year,

It could be their heads weren’t screwed on right,
It could be, perhaps, their shoes were too tight!
By eliminating paperwork and relying on mobile powered carts, companies can effectively boost dock-to-stock cycle time, eliminate improperly labeled products, and minimize inaccurate inventories.
Pushed to do more with less, and to keep workers as productive as possible in the midst of a labor crunch, managers in manufacturing need state of the art tools that help them improve processes while also minimizing errors and ensuring high levels of quality.
Mobile POS technologies are transforming the brick-and-mortar retail. Transactions and processes once tethered to fixed cash registers at the front of a store are being shifted to product aisles and outdoor venues.

The worst advice heard when searching for new, or replacement industrial computer workstations - “just get the cheapest one they have.” Spending a little extra to get the right workstation for the plant, warehouse, store, or distribution center will save money in the long run, and increase productivity.
